the power boost from beating regular pinnacles feels low

I finally managed to start beating Maven and eldershaper this season; but it even that, andd being able to more regularly beat pinnacles, doesn't feel like it powers you up much. There's not much you get from them that you can't just get from mapping and from the stuff that leads to them; and, especially in ssf which I mostly play, the odds of getting the things like watchers eyes that align with what you're using are so poor they don't help much.

maybe the increased access to tier 17s will prove valuable at least.
